    A tester was driving, rather than me, so I am not sure. Although we DO have the boost also. Infact when Luciano was testing he was able to sense it wasn't working right, had it fixed, then matched his real time within half a tenth over a long lap with it.

    Racing has a lot of changes you have to make these days, whether it is DRS, KERS, boosts, brake balance, rollbar, etc. Lots to think about... Not sure my brain can handle it. ;)

    Looking good Tim the Tease... :D

    I lol`d. :D

    Again looking good... really looking forward to these babies. Nice driving Mr. Tester...

    There certainly is a difference in the way the rf2 F2 sounds in the vid compared to the real life cars but as has been said by the wise budd, lets wait and see what they sound like when we`re actaully driving them.

    Good work so far though guys. :)

    Just an FYI, I've been told the Turbo whine is already less volume, I just didn't have it updated when I pulled mine. So, question answered... lol

    Great stuff...

    Perhaps I can't hear too well but it sounds like the turbo doesn't change pitch; just volume or am I vastly mistaken? It also seems like the turbocharger responds unnaturally quick to transients (turbine/impeller inertia) - but I'm not driving it and maybe it's hard to hear... plus it is WIP of course :)

    You probably can't hear it change a lot when he is in traffic, as he is probably blipping the throttle too much. Once he clears traffic you can really hear it wind up. Maybe at 3:13 you can hear it wind up, then in the following right you can hear it winding down as he turns.

    It is indeed WIP code, although THE most incredible software engineer on the planet worked on it. I'm pretty happy already, as a racing sim fan myself. :)

    I do not like the camera vibration, the vibration I disable ... I like the camera overload. With the camera on a flat road vibration going as Ace Ventura 2. With 15 seconds to 30 seconds.

    Yeah, I don't think that in formula car turbo would be very much audible as rest of engine is so much loud, but in cars with quieter engine it can be very audible, especially when you put turbo from one of these to small car like some guys do:

    Good news about the turbo sound. Other than that, the car sound seems awesome in that video :)
